Behind the deaf government and the cruel repressive police #HKprotests are facing, this may be one of their most heartbreaking realizations that "freedom" is and has always been a hollow propaganda word the USA have been using at least since WWII and that money sadly prevails.

♲ @hkmaplive@twitter.com: @Apple 8. We once believed the App rejection is simply a bureaucratic f up, but now it is clearly a political decision to suppress freedom and human right in #HongKong.

#Coy.im is a fairly new, cross-platform, desktop chat app, for the #Jabber network (#XMPP protocol). It's privacy-focused, for example it uses #TOR and #OTR encryption for all chats by default (not #OMEMO, interesting choice).

They say they are looking for people willing to do security audits on their code:https://coy.im/what-is-coyim/

I wish nobody used #reCaptcha. Not only does it forces users to allow Goggle to run scripts in their browser, making users do unpaid mechanical turking for Goggle is just rude. If it contributed to a data commons, like training free code AI, I would't mind so much.

Got my OpenVPN virtual machine running nicely! Got a static route between the VPN & local subnets. I can remote to internal servers. But I still haven't figured out how to make SMB file shares show up for VPN users. :-\

Wow, we did not expect the level of interest you all have had in the #PineTime!

More info: - Cost will be approximately 25USD- Charging dock included in price- Built-in heartbeat monitor- Case built of Zinc alloy and plastic - Battery life measured in days- Sorry, can't run Linux itself. SoC is nRF52832, which uses a Cortex-M4 core. That's why we need FreeRTOS :)
